+1. My percentage has dropped about 10% since early summer. :(

I was doing better as a Silver.

Didnt you just go on Vacation?

Yep, but I'm heading to Vegas for a conference.

Wow, that implies CR-1s will not go away. I like it.

This does open up the possibility of GAs just upgrading people without collecting an instrument....

You would have to burn existing CR-1s, as they will no longer accrue.

Also, the [E]UA program includes up to one companion travelling on the same reservation. @:-)

I haven't missed these routes all year, but then again I have avoided flying into Vegas on Thurs/Fri and out of Vegas Sun/Mon.

Not looking forward to flying EWR-LAS-EWR starting in Jan...

But Wednesday?! I know that the conference I am going to is bringing in a lot of people, but they aren't the crowd that flies paid F.

Yep. Real fair comparison there, considering it's the only airline in the chart that doesn't have a F cabin.

I haven't gotten the email from UA yet. I guess when I called their Media Relations department last night to get some infor I was blacklisted. :(

Yup...


...Comair had the highest rate of canceled flights, at 4.3 percent. Continental Airlines had the lowest rate of canceled flights, at 0.2 percent....

This is an excellent point, CM.

I am reminded of my friend who lives in Chicago and will soon be flying a lot for work.

I told him it made the most sense to fly either AA or UA, based on his routes and timing. I started to get into certificates and spreadsheets to track instruments. It was at that point, he :rolleyes: at me and said,`` I think I will just fly CO since I can understand the system."

That said, he will probably be a very happy flyer once [E]UA is implemented.

I may need to try that line this weekend! The in-laws are going to be in town, so we're going up to CT to see the early fall foliage.

Is PER-Asia-N. America a valid reward routing with BD?
